Allen Company Buttstock Shotgun Shell Holder

Product Information

Small, convenient, and extremely affordable are the best way to describe the Safariland 2 Shell belt carrier. This little guy may only hold two rounds, but it offers a much smaller footprint than other ammo carriers. All it needs is a standard belt too. Small but mighty!

These little 5 Shot Bandoliers are made by everybody, but I’ve found 5.11’s to be robust. The key to these device’s success is the elastic bands. If they loosen too fast, they start to fail. They can also fray and rip. These systems are sold to fit the receivers of popular repeating shotguns such as Remington Model 870s and Mossberg 500 pumps. Offered in various capacities, they locate reloads at the shooter’s fingertips, while consolidating shells into a useful grab & go firearm. The Mesa Tactical Products Receiver Mount Shell Holder is a lightweight and durable aluminum holder that allows for fast tactical reloads of 12 gauge shotshells on the left side of the receiver. The Santoprene elastomer rib securely retains heavy slug shells during movement or recoil.The King Competition MSH generation 6 is a high performance modular shotgun shell holder system, designed and manufactured by World Champions. Great construction. To create the most durable shell holder, we spent 1-year to find out reliable material. We use the most rigid nylon, high-quality leather, and durable sleeve to make it sturdy. Also, Electronic Positioning Solution ensures every round is accurate so that they can hold shells securely and allow easy extraction when needed

Most gun owners wouldn’t consider a basic inventory of firearms complete without at least one shotgun. Most avid shotgun shooters wouldn’t consider those firearms complete without shotgun shell holders. This layer of retention does mean accessing the ammo is a little slower than an open bandolier. As you can see, I combine a bit of both. I use the Viking Tactical Shotgun Ammo Pouch as a means to reload my bandolier if I run them dry. Rugged and lightweight aluminum shell holders from Mesa Tactical Products allow for fast tactical reloads by putting extra 12 gauge shotshells on the left side of the receiver. The unique internal Santoprene™ elastomer rib securely retains even heavy slug shells during vigorous movement or heavy recoil. Available in sidemount or Picatinny rail configurations, the holders come in various capacities to fit Remington, Mossberg, and Benelli shotguns. The skeleton construction makes the system very rigid and allows mounting directly to the several skeleton links with a large steel M6-thread. The rig can be mounted with bolts, hook&loop or with a adapter. All mounting hardware is supplied with the rig (adapter not included in sizes ASSM20 and bigger). foam builtin padding. It slightly raises cheek weld and keeps your gear safe and dry and you stay comfortable for hours behind the scope through any bad weather.

Two useful claybird options in simultaneous use between the shotgun vest and belt pouch. This shotgun will probably never see a side-saddle or extended magazine – but the shooter has plenty of shells! Probably Just Defense For starters, like revolvers and traditional lever-action rifles, tube-fed shotguns are self-contained designs. No worries about lost mags (as well as their contents).

Another advantage: a shotgun with a tubular-magazine shotgun is a shoot-and-replace system. As long as spare shells are readily accessible, they can be fed directly into the magazine, even if the gun is mounted to the shoulder. On a plate carrier, and when ran horizontally, it works wonderfully. It’s easy to reach the shells and easy to load your gun from. The AmmoPal also protects all but 1 round from the elements.

The Mossberg Sidemount is a 6-round unit that attaches in the same manner as the Remington Sidemount and fits Mossberg 500/590. Benelli Picatinny models include an integral Picatinny rail and mount to the top of factory drilled/tapped receivers. Available in 6-round for Benelli M1/M2, 6- and 8-round for M4/M1014, and 4-round for Supernova shotguns. Effective range, depending on the gun and load, will max out at around 35–40 yards. More range (and punch) will require a switch to a slug. A common 12 gauge rifled-slug shell contains a one-ounce, .73-caliber lead bullet.
